Hi Brian, I placed an order with Taylor Toolworks on 10th December. Have not heard anything from then since. I then sent an email asking if order has been shipped and asking for tracking details yesterday morning and have heard nothing since. Just really poor customer service and I am in Australia so with time difference not easy to call. I dont think I am unreasonable.

[@StumpyNubs]

Assuming you checked your junk mail folder, I would suggest your spam filter is catching and deleting the emails before you see them. Because there is no way Taylor Toolworks is ignoring your emails about not getting your product. That's simply not how they operate. Why not call them?

Cutting Foam Insulation: Sorry this is off-topic, but if anyone has tried to cut rigid foam insulation without a cloud of annoying clingy particles, or ending up with a wavy edge, here is a solution. 1. Buy a blade for your saber saw like BOSCH T313AW3 2. On a straight board, cut a saw kerf in the middle deep enough that when placed under the foam board, it has free movement up and down. Clamp the foam board down. Shorten the blade if needed. (I cut mine with a Dremel cutoff disk) 3. Once the board is kerfed, place the kerf on both ends directly under the line you want cut. When you cut along the line the kerf will capture the blade and keep it perpendicular to the cut. You will end up with a "factory cut" on the edge of the panel. It's pretty amazing. I can't tell you how frustrating it has been to get a straight cut without a huge mess of debris, or having the cut along the blade being very straight, but the blade wanders all over the place until I came up with this solution. I have used this with great success. James, I hope you don't mind me posting this. I can take it down if it's off-topic and inappropriate. I just wanted to give something to the group. Ho, ho, ho!

Note to my fellow woodworkers: be careful of the Amana bits that Amazon is shipping from that listing. The first two that they shipped me were clearly counterfeits and all Amazon did was ask me to send them back (presumably to be put back into circulation)

[@MrBubba256]

What was your indication that they were counterfeits?

[@rhuynh]

Can you describe how to tell? Thanks for heads up

[@StumpyNubs]

I haven't seen any Amana counterfeits, but pretty much anything can be counterfeit, these days. You can usually tell right away by the low quality fit and finish, sometimes a lack of proper packaging and missing logos on the tool. If you get a fake, it'll be pretty obvious. Just return it. Unfortunately, Amazon isn't the only place where there is that risk. Sometimes the fakes slip in at the distributer, overseas.

[@dracodraco1982]

@@StumpyNubs Hey, if you feel so inclined, that might actually make a good video, given how anything quality is so swiftly counterfeited these days. Just a thought, anyway. Could be one of those subjects that seems simple at a glance and spirals out of proportion, so it's just a thought.

[@Warshipmodelsunderway]

I wanted a nice keychain tape measure, but couldn't find one i liked - 10' long, narrow, and not overly bulky in the pocket. The Stanley 10' pocket measure was perfect, except it had no keychain (Stanley - sales opportunity here LOL) . I pulled one the screws on the back, got a longer one, and made a tiny link out of a bit of steel with two small holes drilled into it. I could attach this to the chain I pulled off of a Milwaukee key chain tape measure and I had exactly what I needed.

[@greggordon6215]

Another great video! I bought the thread/bolt gauge thingy... simple and very useful for us all! lol I'd love to buy the chisels but have never used a good one or know how to sharpen them. Although it's easy enough to learn with YT of course. Very tempting to buy with 2 discounts!

[@clickster1883]

I bought my Kapro magnetic combo square at Woodcraft ~2 yrs ago. Just as you mentioned, the pro is the ease of adjusting, removing, and inserting the ruler piece, but the con - which I’ve found to be significant - is that the ruler moves far too easily when I don’t want it to. That said, Woodcraft still offers it, priced at $25 on their website, slightly less than on Amazon.

[@trackie1957]

I've been using the refills for Fischer Space Pens in my Zebra pens.

[@ailivac]

Haven't used the F-701 but Zebra F-301s are the only ballpoint pens I use. Because they're one of the easiest to find FINE point models. I used to absolutely hate writing with pens, and still prefer 0.5mm mechanical pencils most of the time, because every single one I used to have was a medium point, and they just make horrible mushy messy lines and giant dents in the paper. Fine points feel completely different to use.

I have loved ISOTunes for a long time, but since trying the new Jabra Elite 7 pro and now the Active 8, I had to switch. It's not as good noise isolation with the original ear tips, but with the comply foam tips, it's closer. Though the versatility of the Jabra app makes them so much better to control equalizer, noise cancelation, or alter the functions of the buttons on them. I wish ISOTunes would add an app to chance settings to make them comparable, and they would be unbeatable.

Your description of the chisel metallurgy was correct up until you mentioned molecules. Metals consist of atoms in a crystal lattice

[@ps.2]

What's the definition of a molecule in this context? Is it the atom? It seems to me, it is the atom. But I guess some could argue a grain of a crystal constitutes a single huge molecule.

[@dalechristensen6246]

@@ps.2 A molecule is made up of two or more atoms which are held together in an ionic or covalent bond where electrons are shared.

[@WaterfieldForge]

Cyro-treating carbon steels in liquid nitrogen isn't really a molecular change. In Martensitic heat treatment the steel crystalline structure changes from pearlite to austenite above non-magnetic temperature. When austinized steel is quenched it freezes the crystal structure in a midway point before it can fully revert to pearlite which is the crystal structure referred to as martensite. A percentage of the austinite is retained in the crystal matrix, which are soft or weaker points in the structure. Tempering is the process of converting retained austinite to martensite and softening martensite. Newly converted martensite from the first tempering is untempered, which is why almost all modern carbon steels require two tempering cycles. Now where cryogenic treatment comes in is aiding the conversion of retained austinite to martensite by continuing to cool past the point of temperature where the quench ended. In high alloy steels such as stainless cryotreatment is often required because the alloying elements impede the the transition between crystal structures. Essentially all cryogenic treatment is doing is increasing the hardness of the material its why steel becomes brittle in cold conditions. The effect starts in an environment as cold as your deepfreeze and doesn't significantly increase in effectiveness with decreasing temperature until you begin to reach the upper -200s. what cryogenic treatment doesn't not do is compensate for poor heat treatment prior to the quench, get to hot for too long and the crystal structure turns to beach sand and has terrible durability no matter how much its tempered or treated after its quench.

A common problem is folks who drill the pilot hole first, then countersink. The countersink can wander, making a weird hole. Try countersink first, then drill the pilot hole. The countersink makes a perfectly centered spot to start the drill.

I saw one of your videos a couple years ago about the graphgear pencils so I decided to buy one. I LOVED it and later bought more. Then one day after a few months of use, It stopped working. I thought it was stopped up with a tiny piece of lead still inside, so I took it apart and rammed a small guitar string up the inside of it to clear the jam. I put new lead in and it would click click and click but no lead would come out. So I trashed it and grabbed a new one. A few months later It to stopped working. Later, another and another. Some, the clickers just stopped clicking. Are you having these problems with yours also? I eventually stopped buying them and went back to those bulk packages of Bic pencils.

I don't promote companies with "terrible customer service." However, every brand I have ever known has had at least some customers who felt the service was not to their expectations. People are imperfect, and imperfect things happen, sometimes. That said, whenever I have investigated a significantly poor viewer complaint about a brand I work with, it invariably turns out that there is far more to the story. The fact is, people see things the way they want to see them, good or bad. All I can reliably do is give an honest assessment of on MY experiences.
